AB The Children’s Communication Checklist (CCC-2) has demonstrated its usefulness as aninstrument to assess discrepancies between the use of structural dimensions of language and thepragmatic and sociointeractive uses of language. The aims of the present paper are: (1) to test thecapacity of the Galician adaptation of the CCC-2 to discriminate the linguistic profiles of childrenwith different disorders and (2) to test whether the capacity of the CCC-2 to discriminate the linguisticabilities of children with different disorders is the same at different ages: earlier development andlater development. The sample is of 117 children previously diagnosed with different disorders:autism spectrum disorder (ASD), developmental language disorder (DLD), attention deficit withhyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Down syndrome children (DS) and typically developing children(TD). The children were divided into two different age groups: from 4 to 6 and from 7 to 16 years ofage. The results indicate that the Galician CCC-2 (1) accurately identified children with and withoutcommunicative impairments, (2) distinguished between profiles with a predominance of pragmatic(ASD and ADHD) and structural disorders (DS and DLD) and (3) distinguished between differentprofiles of pragmatic impairment. The CCC-2 equally identified these profiles at both earlier andlater ages. The Galician CCC-2 seems to be a useful instrument for differentiating among differentclinical groups and for assessing pragmatic disorders from an early age, which can be valuable forplanning early intervention
